Izzy's Parabatai, Clary's Sister (Jace Wayland x Oc)

Chapter 2

After hours of partying and dancing with Simon and Clary we headed home. I grabbed my steel and drew a rune that I created in my spare time on my arm allowing Simon to see things he couldn't see before such as glamoured Shadowhunters, demons, and the institute which would look like an abandoned place in order to keep mundanes out and from seeing what they shouldn't.

After grabbing Simon's hand and holding it in place for a moment he now has the sight. I glance out the window as Simon and Clary grabbed any last minute things they would need at the institute and I spotted a man with a circle rune as well as a demon alongside him.

Not waiting another moment I turned toward Simon and Clary "Stay here for a minute. Clary, do you still have the seraph blade I gave you?" She nodded confused and I turned to Simon "Do you still have that gun I have you?" He nodded just as confused as Clary.

"Okay, I need to take care of something really quick, I need you two to take my bag, it has an extension charm placed on it by one of my warlock friends. It has any belongings I forgot to grab the first time, put yours in it as well and I need you to carry it with you. When I give the all clear, do not waste a second running out of this house. Keep your weapons out, just in case a demon or something slips by."

They nod in understanding and began to pack their belongings they had in their hands. I run outside and began to fight the demon and circle member. I pull out my gun that withholds bullets that can kill  downworlders, demons, etc. I shot the demon first given it would be easier.

I then went for the circle member.

As Clary and Simon ran out of the house after I fought the circle member and killed him. They ran to me and hugged me as tightly as possible, "We we're so scared we would lose you." They said in unison which kind of freaked me out.

"I'm not going any–" I was cut off by feeling something or someone pull at my leg, I looked down and saw the most adorable little girl hugging me.

"Thank you" she said her voice scared and frail. "For what?" I asked her confused. "For saving me, he–" she gestured to the circle member "was going to take me back to that place, I don't want to go back to that place, please don't make me go back! I'll be good!"

My heart broke. This little girl, who could not possibly be more than 5, has been through so much. She was dirty and bruised with cuts all over her face.

"I promise that you will never have to go back there." I said kneeling down next to her "Were you with someone before you were taken?" I asked her softly.

She shook her head, "I was by myself- I was at the park. I was looking for somewhere to stay the night." That's it. I'm adopting this girl, she's mine now.
